Freescape - Post apocalyptical sandbox PW

[Legacy_Cablefish]

               Freescape - A PW in beta testing


Description

The world once hosted a mighty civilization with advanced magic and technology. A mighty cataclysm destroyed the world and tore holes in the very fabric of reality. In a post apocalyptic world players struggle for survival while trying to rebuild civilization.



Freescape offers a unique sandbox roleplaying realm where the players physically change the world and create the fun. Structures can be placed arround the world. Broken bridges can be repaired and everything can be crafted by the players.


Forge your own destiny!


Features

• Crafting and camps - Players can travel the world. Overcome its obstacles and gather its resources back to improve their home camps or craft equipment. Bridges can be repaired. Crafting stations can be built. Bridges can be repaired. Civilization can spread.
• Intense roleplaying action - You'll find no goblin encounters or NPC merchants in Freescape. A core principle is that intelligent behavior requires an intelligent mind behind it. Instead players will get the chance to play monsters themselves and harrass those pesky settlers or craft traps for their lair. That along with DM run events will ensure player driven entertainment.
• Playable subraces - Players are able to play most basic subraces along with several monster types like goblins and kobolds. More powerfull subraces (i.e. minotaurs or vampires) will be playable with DM permission.
• Find lost knowledge - Uncover hidden secrets and learn the lore of the world before the cataclysm. Earn experience from reading books. Unlock mysterious powers and struggle to control them. The lore of the world is unwritten and will gradually evolve through events in game.

Help needed
The world is currently in its beta stage and still needs lots of testing and building. I'm putting together a team of scripters, DM's and builders. Whatever you got I'm sure we can find a use for it.

Whats most needed right now is a scripter and some players. Hosting would be nice at some point too.

Other info:

I've made a bioware community project. If it works out alright I'll upload base modules and stuff there.
social.bioware.com/project/3068/

I'll be putting the module online periodically to test out persistency and stuff. Look for it under the gamespy roleplaying section.

Thanks goes to Chass' late World of Isandor which have inspired me to start this project and for some concepts i have shamelessly copied. Also thanks goes to the Overgate Community who've done a lot of the work for me.

               Thanks to some helpful people who've done all the work for me, I now have all the core systems running. Playable Subraces (and monsters), persistent structures and crafting.



Therefore I'm going to test it you by doing some beta-testing of the server and its mechanics tomorrow at 22:00 in Central European Time (GMT+1 and the summer saving time thingie).



See you there for the first live events of Freescape!

               I am interested in playing, but I cannot find the server in any of the tabs, just as I have problems finding a good few of the other servers advertised here, it's as if the server browser just doesn't want to find these servers. Plus it always seems to happen to the servers I want to try out that do not have the server IP and Port written anywhere I can find '>, is it possible you could write it somewhere ? :happy:.

Thanks for your time

               I was playing already, old post that was!. Character was Rand as you saw earlier, but due to my computer spiking out whilst trying to rid of the wolfs I got eaten when I tried to retreat xD.

Not sure if permanent death is my thing tbh, new to NWN and still learning about the game, also can't imagine building a character for weeks or more and having him suddenly die outright, especially with the progressive crafting system.

Also been along time since I have roleplayed in a computer game, which is the only place I've ever roleplayed, but I feel that I don't really want to create a different character that is too alike my last ( Rand ), i.e a human fighter/blacksmith, but neither do I feel compelled to play anything else right now.

May or may not play in the future, it's a decent server, great setting, destined for some great and strange storylines, no NPCs around to buy from make for an awesome sense of self suffiency and a post apocalyptic feel, everyone should try this out it might just be your cup of tea. Probably one of the best ideas for a PW I myself have got to play on so far in my short NWN experience!.
